Reason for Recommended Action/Background
DSH received funds in the 2021-22 Budget to expand Community Based Restoration (CBR) and Felony Mental Health Diversion (Diversion) programs. As part of the expansion, DSH is providing counties with an opportunity to establish new or expand their existing diversion programs and receive additional funding for providing housing services to clients that were found Incompetent to Stand Trial (IST) per Penal Code §1370 and on the DSH waitlist.
The County desires to enter into State Agreement No. 22-79009-000 with DSH to administer a pre-trial jail felony mental health diversion program for individuals charged with felony offenses in Yolo County. Program participants are individuals with serious mental disorders who have committed certain felony crimes and found by a Court of competent jurisdiction to qualify for diversion services pursuant to Penal Code § 1001.36, hereafter referred to as “Felony Mental Health Diversion Clients.” The County will provide clinically appropriate or evidence-based mental health treatment and wraparound services across a continuum of care, as appropriate, to meet the individual needs of Felony Mental Health Diversion Clients. Wraparound services provided by the diversion program shall include appropriate housing, intensive case management, and substance use disorder treatment, and may include, without limitation, forensic assertive community treatment teams, crisis residential services, criminal justice coordination, peer support, and vocational support. The County will also secure appropriate placements, housing and services for Diversion clients found IST who are currently on the DSH IST waitlist.
